Good company to work for. Unfortunately, because of being unionised, advancement is based on time served and not by work ethics. Co workers are usually more than willing to help make everybody's day better. Supervisors and Managers very approachable

I have loved every minute of my time here at GFL. The people who work here and the customers we serve are the best. Waste! Who would have dreamed it could be so fun!!

I laugh every day at work and I have the best boss in the world! He is extremely busy, but takes the time to listen when it really counts! I work with extremely talented people who challenge me to be better every day!

You would be working against weather , public , and management.City keep expanding, we still have same number of trucks and employees.Pay is low, over time starts after 10 hrs I don't know why !!10 hours is minimum a day if you ask them to leave they'll get mad at ya.You get injured they get mad ..If you get the job say good bye to your family and your life .

Working as front end rear pack driver out of the cherry st location in Toronto. It is the most horribly managed company I’ve ever worked for. Currently there are over 30 broken down trucks in the mechanic shop. The work load is unrealistic started with 50-60 calls, I am currently expected to complete 100-180 pick up a day and increasing. Any time you fall behind you are called in and are yelled at, this happened even when I had a week on the job and was still learning. Not saying every yard is like this but from what I’ve experienced at cherry st. Do not work here. Looking for a new job as I write this. Management makes constant promises of things to get better and equipment to be fixed, and nothing ever happens or gets better. Every morning in the locker room all you hear is other employees talking about how much they hate it and can’t wait to find a better job. F GFL...

Gfl is an ok company. Management is a bit top heavy and they seem to allow staff that have been with company a long time a lot of rope, even if there are issues and complaints. They tend to play favorites.

Great company if you don't mind putting lots of hours in the summer, in the winter it slows down a lot. They pay over time, so it's a good idea to budget for the slower season in winter do you can pay all your bills. Home every night, not a lot of room for advancement.

Managers constantly push to get trucks fixed and back on the roads even when they are unsafe. We had a meeting and we're told to stay late and work overtime to finish jobs then 2 months later they cut the overtime right before Christmas so they can collect year end bonuses which caused the shop to get behind. Managers would rather sit in offices than help in the shop. Always understaffed. No tool allowance. No Christmas bonus. Only closed 2 days a year( Christmas and New Years. And again horribly managed head in the sand type managers. Most management came from waste management which is also a poorly managed company.

Management Has no regard for safety. No site inspections or toolbox meetings are ever had. Drivers often work for more than 14 hours a day and shop workers are asked to handle dangerous goods with little training or supervision. Yard positions don't pay enough to make the 30-40 hours of overtime you will get per week worth it.

the job started off ok, nothing went wrong and everything was ok until the units were in constant repair. even though it was the conditions the units had to endure, management made it feel like it was the drivers fault and the driver were held accountable although the management made the drivers run the units into the ground. i would not recommend anyone to work for this company. in order to make good for the contracts they had in place, sometimes the drivers would have to run unsafe units, units without kill switches and other necessary safety precautions put in place to keep the operator/driver from harm. this does not reflect just one shop but across multiple shops.

Very bad management from the top if you're face don't fit your be gone would not recommend this company to anyone unless you are really hard up and don't mind being ran into the ground ....very badly ran !

I had a lot of support from management and my peers coming into GFL. Bunch of great guys to work with, and everyone will do their best to help you out where you need help. Honestly some of the best support ive ever seen in a company

Was not a great experience. They expect you to complete 3 round trips to the dump regardless of and hickups you may receive, they still expect the same.There are too many boss's not enough employees. One person wants you to do something the other wants something else of you.Crazy....
